Poinciana

This iconic local venue is affectionately regarded as the heartbeat of Mullumbimby, Australia’s biggest small town. Poinciana is conveniently located right in the middle of town, making it hard to miss.

Poinciana strives to be as local, organic and eco-friendly as possible. The team is passionate about forging lasting relationships with suppliers and farmers from the local community, whose practices emphasise quality and responsibility.

Poinciana has recently been refurbished and revitalised by Monique Emilio, the Mullumbimby local from New Zealand who has a quarter of a century of experience in hospitality under her belt. While she has made a few changes to the local icon she is determined to retain its family friendly nature.

In the kitchen, Monique has enlisted the expertise of Sydney chef Kahlil Perazzo. Having worked in some of Sydney’s fine dining greats, including Quay and Tetsuya’s, Chef Kahlil has a passion for locally grown and organic food and his new menu truly encapsulates this.

Keeping in line with Poinciana’s philosophy, Monique has partnered with Bassett Espresso to bring high quality coffee sourced from unique farms around the world and roasted locally here in Australia.

Each week Poinciana’s baristas use Paul’s Blend and Single Provenance coffees to give customers the Bassett experience.
